Abstract - Road junctions are designed at place where
vehicular traffic can move in different direction in a systematic way. The traffic at road junction is controlled and resumed in a systematic way to produce further in their respective direction with the help of traffic signals. Study on Road junction is a crucial subject and is very important so as to propose a suitable road junction design and it involves understanding the nature of traffic, kind of area, density of population, rectifying the present problems, finding alternatives, etc. so we have taken initiation to study and analysis the traffic and provide solution i.e. study area is near Konanakunte junction which is located about 8.5km away from Banashankari, bengaluru. It is four legged intersection with arms leading towards Banashankari road side, kanakaupra road side, Electronic city side, kengeri road side and it has a lot of delay and queue length during office hours. Keywords: Traffic, Intersection.
Junction,
Density,
To conduct the classified volume studies and turning movements.
To provide best proposal at reduced land acquisition.
To arrive with a best proposal to reduce traffic congestion, delay and queue length.
To provide higher level of service.
3. BACKGROUND 3.1 STUDY AREA MAP:
Population,
1. INTRODUCTION Bangalore is the capital city of Karnataka and is the fifth largest city in the country and it is growing at a higher rate than other cities. Due to the growth in economic activities, it is attracting more migrants and it requires developed roads, grade separators, subways, mass transit system etc. In Bangalore on an average, 2 major and 2 minor junctions are there per kilometer of road length, due to which increase in travel time and frequent bottlenecks and break downs occur and also delay and congestion beyond tolerable limits.

A traffic study is a detailed examination and analysis of a transportation system supported by data collection. Transportation studies serve to quantify the extent of a transportation problem or to provide an analysis of a proposed transportation solution.
2. OBJECTIVE
To identify the various proposals to reduce travel time and queue length.
To conduct speed studies.
